When does a 'blue on blue' event get reported? When symptoms of a coverup appear. It's not the 'blue on blue' event that is the newsworthy. The coverup - denial of basic facts for years - that is the scandel.
Illiinois F-16s killed some Canadians in Afghanistan. Same story. It was not the event that made news. Missing (therefore major news) was the candid admission. Also worthy of mention - drug use that result in increased deadly mental errors during 'stress'.
How many of the 'blue on blue' events got reported. Almost none because most were not newsworthy. This is reeked of a coverup. That is news.

Drug use??? please post what first hand info you have about this. You know for a fact that "drug use" was involved? Or are you just repeating some spin from a anti-government website?
Sure any cover-up is bad. Give you that one.
Why does it keep happening? because there are bullets still flying about. As long as lead is heading down range people are going to get hurt, enemy and friendly alike.
